Family Recreational Swim

Our family recreational swim night is a fun activity for the whole family.   This program is for individuals with physical disabilities who want to enjoy being in the water with family and friends.   Family Swim is open to individuals who are just getting reacquainted with pool based activities as well as avid swimmers.   So come on out and enjoy this great opportunity to swim, splash around or just relax while enjoying the freedom of water.

There will be a lifeguard on duty and volunteers to assist our participants if needed as well as a wheelchair for entering the pool via the ramp.

We’d like to thank the Institute for Human Performance for donating the use of their state of the art pool.   The 200-ton floor of this extraordinary pool adjusts from ground level to seven feet in depth, making it ideal for diverse applications, including aquatic therapy under reduced-gravity conditions, performance analysis for competitive swimmers and health promotion programs. For participants with disabilities, the pool’s moveable bottom, combined with a specially engineered wheelchair ramp, provide unprecedented access and independence.

Please be sure to bring appropriate swim wear and towels.
